Cable Titanium
Cable Titanium is an orthopedic fixation device that is high-performance and specifically designed to secure bone stabilization for reconstructive and trauma surgery procedures. Made from medical-grade titanium of the highest quality, this cable offers outstanding strength, flexibility, and biocompatibility. This makes it a solid option for today's orthopedic applications.
Titanium cables are extensively employed in cerclage fixation methods and osteotomies. They are also used for fracture management and revision surgeries in which more reinforcement is needed. They are used to create a circumferential compression of bone structures, helping to ensure solid fixation and ensuring an appropriate alignment throughout recovery. Titanium is a material that provides longevity and durability while minimizing the chance of adverse reactions to tissues.
The smooth and uniform finish of Cable Titanium allows easy passage around implants and bones, without causing any trauma to the soft tissues around them. Its flexibility allows the controlled tensioning that is vital to ensure optimal compression, without compromising bone quality. Surgeons are able to apply precise force to stabilize complicated fractures, particularly in those with comminution or inadequate bone quality.
One of the main benefits that titanium has is its outstanding corrosion resistance. This feature ensures that the cable is able to maintain its structural strength even in the demanding physical conditions of the human body. Furthermore, titanium is not magnetic and completely compatible with imaging methods like X-rays, CT, and MRI and allows an unobstructed postoperative assessment without interference.
With a standard length of 500 millimeters and a standard length of 500 mm, the Cable Titanium offers versatility across many surgical procedures. The length is extended to enable surgeons to reduce the length of the cable to the desired size during the procedure, which provides flexibility and effectiveness during surgery. Different diameter options are offered to accommodate different requirements for fixation and anatomies of the patient.
Cable Titanium is typically employed in conjunction with plates, intramedullary nail, and various other devices for internal fixation to increase the stability of the entire structure. It is a key component in sustaining reduction, particularly when long bone fractures occur and in the periprosthetic case where additional fixation is required.
Each cable is precision-manufactured to ensure consistent diameter and tensile properties throughout its length. This guarantees an exact performance when the process of tensioning and fixing, which contributes to the reliability of surgical results. The cable can be used with conventional connectors, tensioners and orthopedic instruments.
Available Sizes and Codes (Titanium)
The cable Titanium is available with these specifications:
- PS-785.10-500 - Diameter: 1.0 mm | Length: 500 mm
- PS-785.12-500 - Diameter: 1.2 mm | Length: 500 mm
- PS-785.17-500 - Diameter: 1.7 mm | Length: 500 mm
These sizes allow surgeons to choose the most appropriate diameter of the cable according to the needs of the procedure and the demands of fixing.
